Virtual File System

1. A method for a virtual file system executed by a computer, wherein the virtual file system simulates physical files stored on other repositories of other computers as files which are accessible locally for a user, the method comprising: receiving a request for a file operation to a file in the virtual file system from an application interface on a hardware device of a computer via a proxy driver; performing, by a context management system driver different from an application including the application interface, a context management service in response to a reception of the request, wherein the context management service of the context management system driver includes: receiving results of a first search for files related to current context of the user, organizing the results of the first search into a virtual folder of the virtual file system, recording entries into a history of path mappings, wherein the path mappings map a location of the virtual folder to locations of the files, corresponding to the result of the first search, and wherein the history of path mappings is recorded onto physical media, determining whether the virtual folder is or is not a root, further receiving, responsive to a determination that the virtual folder is a root, a result of a second search for files related to another current context, the files being stored on a repository of physical media of said other computers connected with the virtual file system, updating the result of the second search into the virtual folder related to the result of the first search, and further recording entries into the history of path mappings which map the location of the virtual folder to locations of the files, corresponding to the result of the second search, on the physical media.

2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising: monitoring the current context including at least user behavior correlated over time, wherein the second search is performed based on the updated current context of the user according to the monitoring.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the monitoring is performed based on keywords related to an application being used by the user and text information of a file accessed by the application.

4. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising: resolving a path of the selected file to a physical location on the repository of the physical media by reference to an entry recoded in the history of the path mappings corresponding to a time when the file operation request was received.
